Forum:All The Tropes/Rules

The forum is meant to be a supplement to the wiki, not be an entity unto itself.

Unlike TV Tropes, a ban from the forums also means a ban from the wiki. We're not ban-happy types and don't want to ban anyone, but doing anything against our policies or that of Miraheze is not allowed (basically, don't be an asshole, don't post criminal content, no hate speech, no Censorware, etc.).

By the same measure, while we won't edit other people's posts just because we don't like what they said, we will remove any illegal content or vandalism, especially if prompted to do so by Miraheze. (And just so you know, we won't play games and define things we don't like as "vandalism" to justify deleting them.) Also, due to differences in wiki software, our version of a suspension means you can't edit anything but your own talk page, while a ban means you can't even do that. As a result, suspensions and bans are not handled via this forum like they are on TV Tropes.

If you must demonstrate something with a NSFW link, it must be labeled appropriately, like with (NSFW) next to the link. It also must be relevant to the discussion. Posting porn links for the sake of posting porn links is not allowed.
